B. Denison) in his work on Clocks' Watcher, and Bells, in which he says, page 322 :— " Although labor is dearer in America than here, this machinery enables them to undersell English Watches of the aatne quality ; " and that the system of making watches by machinery is the only correct one is held forth by this eminent authority in the same work, in which he says : '• There can be no doubt in the mind of anyone who understands machinery that this is the best as well as the cheapest way of making' 'machines which require precision and uniformity."
